Also, assuming the cruiser initiates combat and the defending subs remain, don’t forget that the defending subs get to shoot first even though they are defending. That means the cruiser might not even get to shoot at all…

Do these buggers ever get sunk?

On G1 I buy a Destroyer, so if I fancy a G2 Barbarossa I can get one of the buggers.
If you are desperate, buy 2 on G1.
Otherwise I know what you mean: can be a thorn if not removed early.
I have always played Germany, so am not happy until every Russian unit is dead. -
My first attempt at an unorthodox G1 was ruined by that stupid sub in 115. Took CV and loaded TT (to attack Vyborg) with 2 - 3 fighters hoping that the sub would not hit the first shot attack. He rolled a 1 so I had to retreat but couldn’t unload due to the rules. Did not purchase any navy so he just took the transport on R1. Ended up losing norway for a couple turns since I had no transport to take it back and Russia took out my guys in finland. VERY costly and obviously the Allies ended up winning that game. Lesson learned :-D

Always have a DD with a Carrier. Rule #176 of A&A.

Error, I meant a CA. No CV available on G1.
